R448A

Introduction:
Solstice N40 is an ASHRAE 34 A1 (non-combustible) refrigerant and does not consume ozone. Its GWP value is only 1273 (IPCC, AR4), which is 65% lower than R-404A (GWP value 3920). It is an ideal low GWP value alternative to R-404A and R-22, which can significantly improve system energy efficiency. In addition, Solstice N40 is designed to replace R-404A almost directly, making it an ideal solution for supermarket applications. The system can be retrofitted with only minor adjustments, and construction is fast and easy to maintain.
So far, Solstice N40 has been widely used in more than 2,000 systems worldwide, with support from many leading system and refrigerator equipment manufacturers in the European Union, the United States, Japan, and the Asia-Pacific region.
